In article <Pine.LNX.4.02.9812030053200.30891-100000@neko.binary9.net> you write: > What would happen is that we would all be crushed against the planet's > surface as the balancing forces of gravity and centrifical would no > longer be in accord.
And considering that there is no centrifical force on the poles (for they are on the axis of rotation), this explains why this regions are pretty unfriendly. Only the strongest animals may live under the extremely high gravity conditions; namely, penguins. No living human could ever walk where a penguin dwells (moreover, an angry penguin is a rather dangerous foe).
Which proves that this Amundsen story is just a hoax. Like the Goodtimes virus.
